Interpretation
In the lyrics of '2sad2disco',
Apache 207 describes his feelings of melancholy and confusion in a nightclub or party environment. He starts with an image of himself alone in the night, with thoughts that 'float empty in the room', suggesting his inner emptiness and possibly depression. He drinks Beluga, an expensive vodka, which could be his attempt to numb his negative feelings.
He reminisces about a past relationship that 'cost him sorrow and ten years of life'. However, instead of drowning in his pain, he used it as inspiration for his music, which eventually brought him 'millions'.
The chorus '2sad2disco' is a wordplay that expresses both his sadness ('2sad') and his inability to enjoy himself in a party environment ('2disco').
In the second part of the song, he encounters an attractive woman in a club, who asks him to turn towards her. She asks him to write a song for her in Turkish. He responds that he only has one love that doesn't understand, regardless of the language he writes in. This could indicate unrequited love or a broken relationship.
The repetition of the chorus '2sad2disco' reinforces his ongoing sadness and disorientation, despite the apparent glamour and energy of the club scene around him.
